Rates

North Central Electric's basic residential electric rate is separated into two components, Cooperative Service and Fees and Purchased Power Charges.

The meters record the amount of electricity consumed and when it was consumed. Under the Time-of-Day rate, power consumed during on-peak periods costs slightly more than power consumed during the off-peak periods.

Each month, the power bill from North Central's wholesale power supplier, Buckeye Power, is calculated based on the highest peak hours for the month. The cooperative does not know exactly when those peaks will occur each month, but it does have data that shows which hours those peak hours will likely occur.

The following is a summary of the Time-of-Day rate schedule for residential customers, effective Jan. 1, 2018

North Central Electric also offers load management rates for members who install a load control switch on their electric water heater or their central air, heat pump or geothermal heating and cooling system. Learn more by viewing the programs and rebates page.

Commercial and Industrial Rates

North Central Electric's commercial and industrial rates are very competitive and vary depending on load profile and other factors.
